Foxey Wm. Carter is just as foxey as ever and residents of the village are sti!l laughing over his latest stunt. William has one of the best farms in tthe couptry and one of his hobbies is the growing ofo onions of superior tenderness and strength. Receiving an order from Coleraine and Bovey for 300 bunches and being unable to obtain, the necessary help, he hit on the schem of ipviting Joe Lambert and Frank McMahon to spend Sunday at the farm, telling the boys the fishing and hunting was excellent, The boys accepted the invitation with great pleasure and on being assured they would find plenty to eat at the farm, neglected to take any eatables along. They were somewhat surprised on their arrival when they were requested to assist in gathering and stripping a “few bunches” of onions, but being good fellows, they couldn’t turn William down and so got busy. About 12 o’clock they experienced an em- pty aching void in the region suppos- ed to be commonly inhabited by food and put up a howl for a feed. It seems that William had neglect- ed this part of the program, and after scratching his head a while, in- formed the booys that there was nothing eatable about with the ex- ception of onions. They oobjected to the bill-of-fare very strenously.and ‘set out on a still hunt in search o food—that empty aching void be- coming [bigger and bigger every minute. They finally spied some chickens and after making eight ghots brought down two hens and they were soon sizzling over a fire. A few incantations were pronounced and the way the gumps disappeared wasn’t slow. William didn’t let the boys rest long, however, and they were sooon put back too work “strip- ping’’ onions. Bill says they are fast workers and at fast reports was trying to hire them out to George Booth. Evangelistic Meetings Continue The meeting at the town hall still continue with increasing interest. Thirteen were baptised last Sunday afternoon. The Christian church now has thirty members and among them many of Cohasget’s most in- fluentialcitizen. The meetings will last over Sunday and most likely a few days longer. Some subjects to be considered this following week are ‘‘The Man on the Fence,’”’ ‘“‘Bad Bargains, illustrated with steropti- can,’’? Knocking Away the Props.” Blackboard illustrations each night. Olmsted and Miss Meyer give fine musical numbers. Fingertips Cut Off Ed. Baldwin, who has charge of the Hoolihan mill, twelve miles west of here, was the victim of an accident Monday whereby all the fingertips on his left hand were cut off. It seems he was walking through the mill and slipped and fell, his hand striking the circular saw, the tips of his fin- gerg being taken off in an instant. He was brought to Cohasset at once where the hand was dressed, but it will be some time before he can use the member again. 200 Tons oof Hay. John Morris’ haying crew of twelve men returned from the Vermilion farm Monday where they have been haying for the past two weeks. About 200 tons were put up on which John will realize a nice profit, as hay prings good prices in this country. Hardy.ood Mill Shut Down. The Cohasset Hardwood Co., shut down. their mfll Saturday on account of low water, throwing fifteen men out of employment. The water is so tow that logs cannot be obtained, and hence the shut down.
